There is a very strange phenomenon: I am obviously afraid of cold, and my constitution is cold, but I have repeated symptoms of oral ulcer, aphtha, sore throat and acne. What's going on here?

This is an angry question. If people with hot constitution are always angry, forget it. If you often stay up late and eat greasy food, it makes sense to be angry. Why do you usually eat healthy, have a cold constitution, and get angry repeatedly?

I'll tell you about this problem today.

Getting angry is caused by a cold.

Huangdi Neijing said: "Those who suffer from husband fever today are all typhoid fever and the like ... those who suffer from cold injury are also sick with heat." It is clearly explained here that if the body is too cold, it will show fever, which means that it is actually because of cold.

A friend with this situation is the mysterious constitution of "upper heat and lower cold" in legend.

Such people are more difficult to adjust. Simple warming yang will lead to more serious problems of getting angry. Simple heat-clearing and detoxification will lead to the aggravation of body cold problems such as diarrhea and cold lower limbs.

What's the matter with hot weather and cold weather?

Chinese medicine believes that kidney governs water and heart governs fire. Under normal circumstances, the heart fire can warm the lower body, and the kidney water can go up, which can restrain the scorching fire and moisten the upper body. So the body has a cycle of yin and yang.

What's with the hot and cold weather? To put it bluntly, the heart and kidney don't meet, and the kidney water below doesn't rise, which causes the fire above to burn more and more brightly; The fire above can't warm the kidney water, which leads to the lower body getting colder and colder, and people will form a constitution with upper heat and lower cold.

What causes heart-kidney disharmony? Either a heart problem, a kidney problem, or an intermediate problem:

Therefore, the idea of conditioning upper heat and lower cold is to open our spleen and stomach in the middle jiao, and then ignite the fire downward, convection up and down, and cold and heat will be balanced.

I'll give you two tricks to improve the heating and cooling-

0 1 .moxibustion conditioning

For this disobedient little flame, we need to use reasonable methods to guide it to where it should go, that is, to lead the fire back to Yuan, and at the same time rely on external forces to dispel the cold evil accumulated in the lower part of the body. Then moxibustion is a very suitable choice.

Acupoints such as Qihai, Pishu, Zusanli and Sanyinjiao are selected for conditioning. Moxibustion guides the yang floating on the upper part downward along the acupoints, and dissipates cold in the interior, so that yin and yang merge, and at the same time, it warms the lower jiao, warms the legs, opens the meridians, and the fire of upper jiao comes down.
